Although Love says he has no pain in his broken hand, X-rays show he's at least two weeks away from returning to practice and likely three weeks away from playing in a game, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Spin: Love has started shooting, but his hand isn't ready for contact. It looks like a Dec. 11 game against the Lakers is his target return date at this point.Fri, Nov 20

Kevin Love (broken hand) is about two weeks away from practicing, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.

An X-Ray revealed that Kevin Love's broken hand is progressing, but he's still about two weeks from practicing and three weeks from playing in a game. Love did some outside shooting Friday, and though he says he feels almost no pain in his hand, he is unable to do anything physical. If he returns Dec. 11 against the Lakers, that would put him right in the 6-to-8 week recovery time originally reported when he broke his hand Oct. 16.Source: Minneapolis Star-Tribune (click again to close) | C | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Wolves swingman Corey Brewer shot just 4-of-13 for 10 points on Friday, but he added seven rebounds, four steals and one block without turning the ball over. Brewer's versatility is his saving grace, since his awful 36.6% shooting isn't likely to improve any time soon. It doesn't help that the Wolves' don't have many offensive threats to distract opposing defenses.

Timberwolves PG Jonny Flynn is third among rookies with 14.2 points per game, but he's averaging more turnovers (3.6) than assists (3.3). Flynn has a tendency to dribble his way into trouble rather than moving the ball early, as required by the Wolves' triangle offense. Flynn will come around eventually, but right now he's a thoroughly mediocre fantasy PG.Source: St. Paul Pioneer Press

Interestingly, Rafer Alston's on the block in New Jersey, but it's hard to imagine him going back to Orlando after being traded last summer.Source: Orlando Sentinel Related: Rafer Alston, Magic
